This is our media in 2017. Virginia Heffernan, a contributing editor to Politico and Wired, posted a malicious tweet Wednesday night targeting Donald Trump, Jr. with gossip that he swore at a preschool teacher when he was three years old.

Heffernan posted the tweet in reply to a report Trump spent nine hours testifying to the Senate Select Intelligence Committee on Wednesday.
“My friend Anna taught Don Jr preschool in Manhattan. She asked him to move his mat one day and he said, “Fuck you, bitch.” He was three. Today’s for you, Anna.”
Donald Trump Jr. has left the building. 9 hours after arriving. He waved. He didn't comment. Hair still slick.

Heffernan wrote her friend quit teaching afterward, “She quit teaching forever at the end of that year. It’s not a # metoo story but it was extremely disorienting. Many of us are essentially in service roles to the rich, and it takes its toll.”

In response to CNBC reporter John Harwood, who asked, “for real? that’s amazing”, Heffernan replied, “Yes. She’s not on Twitter but I’m sure she’d @snopes it up if they got in touch. It may surprise you to know she’s not in early education anymore.”

Trump was born on December 31, 1977, so this alleged incident would have taken place in 1981–36 years ago–when he was three years old. But Heffernan wasn’t there and is just relaying decades old gossip. But she’s a member of the Blue Checkmark media mafia, so her say so is good enough.
HAPPY BIRTHDAY to my son, @DonaldJTrumpJr! Very proud of you! #TBT https://t.co/ULerCEOCGX http://pic.twitter.com/nbxPVdarJM
